Description

The Lion is a public house dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of painted brick and has a slated roof. The building stands two storeys high and features a four-window range with three-light casements set under segmental arches. The ground floor windows are fitted with boarded shutters. On the left side of the building, there is a blank panel on the first floor and a blocked doorway. There are two doorways: on the left side, there is a six-panel door with the upper two panels glazed, and on the right side, there are twin three-panel doors, also with glazed upper panels. The roof is hipped and has wide eaves.

Local climate

The Lion sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 19 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 81% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
